MGT is one of the very few in Congress that has stood up for the January 6 protesters that are unlawfully incarcerated. She has my respect for that.

I didn't really have an opinion of her until I saw her on a Tim Pool podcast, now I believe we need more like her. When you're pissing off the entire establishment then in my view you're doing good.

She makes all kinds of outlandish claims with zero proof then backs off when confronted with factual evidence. I'm definitely not for the left, but we have to stop pandering to the fringes on the right as well and not support people who constantly prove themselves to be wrong.

Well, you've climbed the chart to the level of contradiction.



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

MTG is a ridiculous clown, to be sure. She's not even worth arguing over.

That such a fool ever got anywhere close to such importance thngs is appalling.

But goobers get to vote, too, and it happens. She, Bobert, Cawthorn, and more.

The sooner they're all gone from any aspect of public service or government the better.

They dumb us all down, are terrible for the Party on the whole, these particular fools.

Go away.

Are you an idiot?

Ok, take that statement, run your finger up and down the pyramid until you find the level that fits. In this case, it’s name calling. Your first post was an ad hominem attack. When called out you went up a couple steps to contradiction. The goal is to get to at least the counter argument stage but higher is actually better. See how that works?

Yup just a regular knuckle dragger over here.

Nobody is saying you are a knuckle dragger but you are trying hard to make that point yourself.

You made a claim, got asked about it, called her nutty, got asked again, made a generic claim with nothing to back it up, and then asked the other guy to expand his comments. Do you see the irony?

Greene has more balls than a vast majority of GOP swamp rats. She is clearly trying not to be part of the two party establishment that is controlling and running the country into the toilet. Some people find that intimidating I guess.

I liken Greene to somebody like my wife. She is smart but she also falls into the trap of not getting her info before she unloads her opinion. So she finds herself having to defend things that would have best been left unsaid. The reality though is that I agree with her more than not and where it matters.

Ideally she would sit on her hands before commenting on things. Her life would be simpler. I can say that about President Trump as well. I would vote for both of them though even though I see this as a shortcoming. They both align with my priorities and sensibilities way more than the average republican.

Wow, well that certainly addresses smschulz question. Aren't those like in the $2000 range, and considered fairly high-end?

Totally agree. There is way too much shooting from the hip and opening of pie holes with bold and imprecise commentary, when we'd be far better off with precisely phrased ideas.

Also: his gun choice surprises me, based on the kind of person he seems to be. I guess I can't fault him, since that's the same thing I carry, though. Razz

Yes, we can fly with firearms. While it can be annoying, it is actually not that difficult. You just have to have patience to deal with the various local LEO working the airport security. At least that was the way it was the last time I flew with a pistol. It was locked inside a suitcase and checked baggage. No problem at all, just the PIA dealing with the locals who had a sad lack of the actual rules.



Padlocked hard case that only you can control the key to (no matter how much crap the officers give you), in checked luggage, declared at the checked luggage counter. They'll ask you to open the case and signed declaration card saying it's unloaded, and depending on where you are TSA will either be all over you or they won't give you the time of day.

A combination lock might be a better option. There would not be any discussion of who handles the key.

Even better would be a case with a biometric lock.
